Throughout our years of community involvement Elevations Credit Union has supported the work of many local non-profit groups. As a result, we have developed close ties to several organizations that provide county-wide services and whose missions fit our giving focus.

Established in 1991, the Community Foundation Serving Boulder County exists to improve the quality of life in Boulder County, now and forever, and to encourage an ethic of philanthropy. The organizations works with donors, supports work of local non-profits and acts as a community resource. Elevations Credit Union participates as a Business Partner in the Culture of Giving, collaborates on the Millennium Trust, and provides volunteer leadership to the Community Foundation.
